1171545 2011-06-13 03:02:00 Steam has it's good points but I'd agree that it's more of an annoyance than anything.

Anyway, game arrived from Mighty Ape on friday. I played it over the weekend and am enjoying it. There are a few bits I don't like and the graphics while good aren't amazing by today's standards.

There is a lot of profanity, nudity(well close), one liners, toilet humour - all as expected :) The weapons so far are all very familiar RPG, Devastator, Railgun, ripper, shotgun and a few others, I just found a shrink ray :) You are limited to carrying two weapons at a time so when you find a new one you have to discard one to equip it.

There are times when you have to spam the space bar to open doors etc - they should not have done that as it's no fun at all. Also finding your way out of an area can sometimes be frustrating with no in game indication of where to go. Then again I just spent an hour driving a monster truck, running down pig cops and jumping over obstacles with turbo boost. Great Fun.

I'd forgotten the satisfaction of lobbing pipebombs at things, or chucking a tripmine in the path of incoming enemies :)

All in all a fun game for those who are not easily offended, definately not for the kids so take the R18 rating seriously. After 14 years of waiting it couldn't possibly live up to the expectations, but forget that and it's pretty good. I'd rate it 7.5~8 / 10

1171547 2011-06-13 03:24:00 that's a shame cause i give it a 9.5 out of 10

its been years since ive played an entire game and actually enjoyed every single minute of it

and the first thing i did after completing it was hit the "new campaign" button and start playing it again!

the only other game to hold my attention this long was Fallout

now all they need to do is get hold of the Shadow Warrior franchise and make a new SW!

1171549 2011-06-13 03:43:00 I'm really liking it as well. :clap :clap
Puts the fun factor back into gaming. Doesnt take itself too seriously , although the toilet humour may not be everyones cup of tea.

I havent played PC games for 2 years so couldnt compare it to latest games. I did read one review that said it starts quite slow & gets much better further into the game. Perhaps the reviewers didnt play much of the game ??

Shadow Warrior, thats a game Id like to play again.

1171551 2011-06-13 05:06:00 there is a High Resolution pack for SW like the one made for DN3D - its not as polished as the DN3D version and not totally complete - ie some of the death sequences like splitting a guy in 2 with the katana is still a normal sprite but the before death and after death textures are updated - worth a look into if you ever fire it up again :D MAC_H8ER (5897)
